Becoming Raquel’s mom shifted everything for me. I’m still ambitious, still driven, but the reason behind it changed. Success doesn’t feel like holding it all together anymore.

Researchers studied 64 middle-aged peri- and postmenopausal women who held senior leadership positions to see if there were any throughlines in the way they navigated changes associated with menopause.

Missed subrogation opportunities don’t make headlines, but they matter.

Every unclaimed recovery is lost potential for employers in a group captive. That’s why Bywater focuses on transparency and precision, making sure every claim tells the full story and every dollar finds its way home.
Missed Subrogation Opportunities Have an Adverse Impact for Both Employer and Captive
  Subrogation can be complicated and time consuming. The first few days after an insured claimant suffers a loss are critical information gathering moments. Subrogation tends to be avoided, because health payers lack the patience and necessary tools to identify and pursue recovery opportunities in a timely manner. Unfortunately, missed subrogation opportunities have an adverse […]

Customer loyalty isn’t a campaign; it’s consistency.

We had a client who’d switched TPAs three times in five years. We didn’t win them with promises; we earned trust with data, transparency, and follow-through. Two years later, they’re still with us. That’s what lasting loyalty looks like.

Too many employers think rising health insurance costs are inevitable.

They’re not.

One wellness client with 400+ covered lives moved into a self-funded group captive and, 7 years later, they’ve saved $9M. Sales don’t matter. Outcomes, accountability, & care do.

The wrong TPA drains your plan. The right one transforms it.

One employer left a big-box TPA after years of slow claims + zero transparency. Switching to Bywater turned this confusion into clarity: smoother onboarding, better service, real savings.

A TPA should always be your partner first.
Choosing a TPA
Tips for Choosing a TPA At its most basic, self-funding is a mechanism an employer uses to pay for its employees’ health care. It’s also an investment in controlling a major cost of doing business. The employer relies on three consultants to deliver a return on that investment: their insurance advisor, the stop loss carrier, […]

It’s #InternationalPodcastDay, the perfect reminder of why conversations matter.

In healthcare, traditional insurance keeps employers in the dark. Self-funded plans do the opposite: they open the books, spark clarity, and put leaders back in control.

Transparency should be more than a buzzword.

Do employers really have to choose between quality or cost in #healthcare?

With the right approach, transparent data, efficient claims, and responsive service, you can have both. That’s exactly what we strive for at Bywater, Roundstone’s #TPA.

Quality and cost don’t have to be enemies.
